Freefrom Prune & Cranberry Jelly
Dairy, wheat, gluten, corn, soya, egg & nut free

400ml / 13fl oz cranberry or cranberry and apple juice
10 cardamom pods (optional)
10g / 1/4oz (or 1 x 11g pack) gelatine
100ml / 3fl oz cherry brandy or creme de cassis
100g / 3 1/2oz very soft prunes
150ml / 5fl oz cow’s, goat’s, soya or oat cream

Heat the cranberry juice with the cardamom pods till they just reach
boiling point.
Take off the heat, cool for a minute or two then sprinkle in the gelatine and stir till it is quite dissolved. Add the liqueur.
Chop all but 3 prunes into small pieces and put them in the bottom of 6 wine glasses. Pour the cranberry mixture over the prunes and put in the fridge to chill. Before serving whisk the cream lightly. The goat’s, oat and soya cream will whip better if they are well chilled. A teaspoon of sugar will also help. Spoon the cream over the top of each jelly and top with a halved prune.
